I fucking hate the perspective in these ultima games so much. Looks so off and vomit-inducing
>>342776370
>>342776425
It looks slightly better in motion well at least the environments do. Hopefully they backpedal and do better looking character models.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMg_3kSoWuM
The new System Shock remake looks way better though.
>>342776357
well I do happen to know a little bit about rendering technology
quake was the first game with fully perspective-corrected texturized polygonal 3d environments that Im aware of; everything since has been refinements of that formula
that nowadays textures are used to generate a lot of additional effects besides a plain structural "wallpaper" texture plus a prebaked lightmap doesnt change the fact that this is just a refinement
that all the rendering is nowadays performed by specialized (gpu) hardware instead of a general-purpose cpu is just a difference of implementation
>>342776497
Call of Chernobyl is based on Call of Pripyat's engine, which came out in 2009. Though the engine is just an updated engine of SoC's engine, which was 2007, but it had been in development much longer and was initially supposed to come out in 2003.
>>342776604
Brofist bro, I fucking love me some Skyrim too!
>>342776802
Wait what? This is SoC? What do I need to play this then? Just SoC, or is it a complete port of SoC to Call of Pripyat as a base game? I'm confused.
>>342773125

>>342776702
Not by much. But I'm usually against remakes so that might just be me. I don't see why they're remaking SS1 when the enhanced edition is perfectly fine. I don't get the obsession people have these days and wanting old games remade. Can people seriously not put aside dated graphics and just enjoy older games?
>>342776270
i liked when arx fatalis was the spiritual successor more
>>342777078
They're trying to get more people into the series for SS3 is my guess.
>>342776737
I guess if you look at "fully perspective-corrected texturized polygonal 3D environment" as the base for every other 3D game ever then that makes sense but there have been tons of large leaps in graphics since then. Real time lighting, shadow volumes, shadow maps, deferred rendering, among others.
>>342776909
Call of Chernobyl is basically a mod for Call of Pripyat. It's using a modified version of CoP's engine that leaked a few years back. But CoP's engine is just an updated SoC engine, it's not an entirely new engine. And while SoC came out in 2007 it was originally meant to come out in 2003, so that engine is pretty old just with some updates to it since, kind of like how Valve has updated Source since 2004, though I don't know to what extent they updated it so it could be closer to a new engine.
It's probably using Clear Sky's versions of SoC's maps since they share a lot of them and CS's look better.
>>342776909
This. Someone please explain.
>Look up mod
>Find mod page
>Like 99.99999% of other mod developers out there they assume that 100% of people know exactly what the fuck it is and have no explanation of what the fuck it is and instead just spam "thanks for the support", how to install, and changelog shit

>>342777493
He said he googled it and found the mod's page you stupid monkey
>>342777373
It's a free play mod that has maps from all 3 games and lets you choose your faction so you can play as a bandit or the military or whatever. It uses a community updated version of Call of Pripyat's engine, which leaked in like 2013 or something.
>>342777639
You don't have to open the first link you see you stupid monkey.
>>342777078
Currently playing trought ss1 because I missed it the first time around. It's still perfectly playable and the music on the first floor is catchy as fuck.
>>342776497
Mechanically it looks pretty sweet. The system shock remake is a different dev team. From my understanding there's like 3 different Otherside dev teams with a handful of guys for each of them.
>>342777078
because le old game aged like milk xD
but seriously ss1 is fine as it is (and best played with the original control scheme) but the remake is taking it in a different direction which is also cool
it's not like it's gonna replace the original
>>342776210
OH GOD YES I FUCKING LOVE THIS GAME
>>342777317
>Real time lighting, shadow volumes, shadow maps, deferred rendering, among others.
right, as I was saying, incremental improvements and diminishing returns
>>342778708
You could say it was whatever game was the first truly 3D game and that Quake just did incremental improvements in adding textures and having more things be modeled rather than sprites.
>>342777860
Just wait until you realize how much better SS1 is than 2.
>>342779048
thats true to a degree but the first fully 3d games didnt really have much in the term of "environments" to speak of, they were typically space sims or flight sims or the like which I think kind of disqualifies them. quake was to a degree the first fully realized 3d "world"
>>342779048
also using sprites would have made it not fully 3d so something like doom wouldnt count even if the environments were fully 3d (which they were not)
>>342779205
Pretty sure System Shock and the game that used the same engine before it were 3D but they still used sprites for everything. As opposed to Doom which was 2D made to look 3D.
>>342779356
Why wouldn't it count? The world and movement is 3D in the games I mentioned above and they even have some 3D objects.
>>342779545
System Shock 1 definitely had some real 3D going on, but from what I remember Ultima Underworld wasn't. You could look up and down with no warp in Shock 1 where in Underworld it would.
>>342779545
imho having a fully realized 3d environment with 3d objects is where the fundamental paradigm shift happened>>342779545
>>342779826
it still used sprites though didnt it? for objects
this is a 1996 pc game
>>342779948
For objects yeah. But the world itself was 3D from what I remember.
>>342779948
System Shock had some 3D objects but also a lot of sprites. I'm just thinking about your "incremental upgrades" idea and it seems like just adding more 3D models would be an incremental upgrade over whichever game was the first to be actual 3D.
This is a 2015 game.

what's going in in this webm?
Am I the only one who still impressed with what they were able to do in Ultima Underworld? I went back and replayed it a few months ago and was just amazed with what they were able to do in 1992. I never got that feeling with games like Wolfenstein 3d or even Doom.

*discovered priorities
>>342784648
Oh sure I love how they prioritize making a texture look 0.0000001% better rather than trying to make it run smoothly or make it a believable world.
>>342784573
damn that fog and skybox look great
>>342776172
Is this better than OGSE?
>>342784774

>>342775021
Is that a "loss" reference in KoTH?
>>342787048
i see it too
>>342780194
It's ridiculous how good SH3 and FFXII still look today. Genius texturing.
>>342784573
Doom's engine was deliberately somewhat "un-advanced", taking render speed over fancy features, implementing just what would be needed to make the kind of levels they wanted (so Doom has its sector brightness and varied floor heights and support for non-perpendicular walls, all of which massively improved the way levels could be designed in an FPS, but the features are there to be more utilitarian than aesthetic).
IIRC, I remember reading that Carmack was going to put slopes into Doom at some point and didn't for speed reasons.
Keep in mind that Ultima Underworld runs a lot more slowly than Doom does on a machine of the era, too. It's playable, but it's not quick enough for a fast-action game like Doom.
also, even though Doom doesn't have true-3D map layout (which made it much easier to design maps, since you could plan them out in a top-down editor or a piece of paper), it has enough data for more full-3D calculations than it does in-game (there's no technical reason other than laziness that two things can't stand on top of each other, Doom objects do have heights -- it simplifies the logic, but not enough to really be a major speed gain)
probably didn't come up that much because early versions of Doom had a bug regarding large height differences and Doom 1 maps aren't terribly tall at all, so you rarely ended up way above an enemy where it having effectively infinite vertical height really mattered

>>342791889
You see those trees? You see how they're only near houses? Now, follow me on this one, it's a doozy - the humans planted them there. So if nuclear holocaust affected the vast majority of the world, killed most of what little foliage there was in the nevada deserts, do you think that these foreign trees that are being supported by humans would have the ability to not only continue growing, but multiply?
tl;dr? I restate the previous, kill yourself.

Videogames are expensive to make, and if you want to do simple things like coding, you gotta hire a couple really good coders, or an army of less good ones.
So rather than make crisis shock XXV, they're taking a classic and 'making it modern, dawg!' They get an almost instant success.
I hate it, and I want it to stop. Even call of duty isn't immune to remakes now.
>>342792410
>>342792514
Remove the healthy trees and there's still a ton of naturally grown vegetation. You guys are absolute retards.
>>342792276
Yeah just look at Pripyat, its a barren irradiated wasteland
>>342792642
No, but it released far more radioactivity than any bomb, the bombs today aren't as dirty as in the past, they just explode bigger.
>>342792685
But the mod in question has lots of overhanging trees, it's not just scattered brush. You've clearly never been to a fucking desert before.
>>342792443
But anon everyone knows that nukes turns any location into a desert permanently, even if it is literally beside the ocean.
I'm sure Beth have done extensive research into their setting and how things work, after all.
>nostalgic screenshots thread taken over by arguing about what realistic vegetation looks like
This is a 1998 PC videogame.
It was literally and for real made on a custom engine developed for many years in one of the dev's parents' garage.
In 2016, we're not allowed to have mirrors in games, let alone portals that teleport your missiles. That was such a meme there for a bit, I think they made a meme videogame out of the concept, but it didn't have mirrors, so it's still inferior.

Portal and Portal 2 have those portal things though. And plenty of games have mirrors and reflections
Rendering tech is different than it was in 1998 so you can't do things the same way you used to be able to do them. That and most devs don't think portals or mirrors are necessary and so don't bother implementing them.

More like caring about interplay canon. Green cities like Vault City and NCR are the exception, not the norm and vanilla new vegas is much lighter on the foliage. It still has green grass where it makes sense like on the strip that has access to Hoover Dam's water.

>>342795506
Because most indie games are made by 1-5 people. Often they're completely untrained in art let alone pixel art.
>>342795506
Well, you see, to make pixel art, that's like any other art. It takes a lot of work and effort if you want it to look good, but these are sprites that are supposed to be essentially in constant motion, so you must be really fucking good to do it correctly.
Here is SNK's own summary.
>>342795612
that's why most new games i play are now indie shit since they can at least be interesting mechanically unlike most AAA games

The bombs in Fallout must not have been much more powerful, considering several bombs landing in Los Angeles and D.C. were incapable of completely obliterating those cities.

>SNK are literally tracing art from 3D models
Takashi Tezuka mentioned in a smm interview that Nintendo had a hard time making new pixel art for the game. The artists simply weren't train it 2D art, only 3D modeling.
It's easier for them to make a 3D model and trace it than to actually draw something.
>>342793698
>Being this upset over literally nothing
>>342795689
This is a shit excuse.
SNK was originally like 10 guys. They never had problems making great looking games, or even the first ever yearly installment of a videogame series.
The original guilty gear was made by 12 people. They did all the voices, the sprites, the music, wrote the lore, drew the art for the manual, and decided that the secret boss should be Kenshin with tits.
Years later, another similarily sized team would do it all over by creating guilty gear Xrd.
How many people worked on good indie games like Freedom planet? Not a whole lot.
It's almost like making videogames takes a certain skillset, but the average indie dev doesn't know this. They just want to shit out their horrible pixel art fuck fests and make easy money.
Regardless, going into sprites is a fool's errand. You're not gonna be able to compete with ancient japanese masters or french specialists. Just make shitty 3d models instead. It's less pathetic when you get compared to something like the latest call of duty, rather than master crafted metal slug sprites.

Those details, shading and touches they add to the final sprites which they draw on top of the reference images could have been put to the 3D model itself and tweak the renderer a bit so that you could simply just render the model and it would end up looking like the final product.
What a giant waste of time and effort.
This is a music track from a 1997 racing game, on PC.

Your post makes me miss low poly models. They had a charm to them.
>>342796679
>still
You only enjoy those games becasue you experienced them as a kid. If you were playing them for the first time today as a kid you would not enjoy them and if you do it's only because you're a hipster. Sorry but new games are just better than the old ones only nostalgiafags would say otherwise

They wanted to make sprites, and they wanted them to scale all the way up to gigantic resolutions, thus they had to make new tech.
They knew how they wanted the game to look, so they did it.
>>342796854
/v/ might not care but I do.
>>342796590
Sprites scale better than 3D models.

>SNK was originally like 10 guys.
10 years later they began development on the King of fighters series with a staff of around 50 not counting voice actors. They're also a corporate backed company, not indie, so they had development research time.
>>342792578
I'd so want to explore that place.
>>342797042
Yes of course how did I not see! The 20 year old game I found and literally only played a few months ago and enjoyed is due to nostalgia!
>>342796101
So 2016 Doom's multiplayer is better than 1996 Quake's multiplayer? That's what you're saying right?
And there's a game right now with objectively better multiplayer than CS? And only my nostalgia is preventing me from seeing all this? Even though I've never played any of these games?
Basically you're saying this guy is just a totally wrong 12+18 year old.

No I meant like make the 3D models look better and then render them to sprites, don't use the primitive models made for reference images they had.
It would eliminate the need to draw anything by hand, there are tons of plugins and shit that makes 3D models look like drawings/cartoons.
stfu already

There's no way they had 50 developers back in 1994. 50+ total employees, sure, but that includes all the service people for their hardware business.
Metal slug and their beat 'em up games were made by specific internal teams under ur-veteran supervision. I don't think KOF was any different. They probably pulled a guy from this team, one from that team, a sprite artist here, got a composer there, and that was it. You're now team KOF! Find a way to merge all these franchises into one. You have this budget, and one year.

I never played Super Mario 3 or Deus Ex until this year and they are head and shoulders over modern titles.

“Hipster” is a term co-opted for use as a meaningless pejorative in order to vaguely call someone else’s authenticity into question and, by extension, claim authenticity for yourself.
It serves no conversational function and imparts no information, save for indicating the opinions and preferences of the speaker.
Meanwhile, a market myth has sprung up around the term, as well as a cultural bogeyman consisting of elusive white 20-somethings who wear certain clothes (but no one will agree on what), listen to certain music (no one can agree on this either), and act a certain way (you’ve probably sensed the pattern on your own).
You can’t define what “that kind of behavior or fashion or lifestyle” actually is, nor will you ever be able to. That’s because you don’t use “hipster” to describe an actual group of people, but to describe a fictional stereotype that is an outlet for literally anything that annoys you.
The twist, of course, is that if it weren’t for your own insecurities, nothing that a “hipster” could do or wear would ever affect you emotionally. But you are insecure about your own authenticity - “Do I wear what I wear because I want to? Do I listen to my music because I truly like it? I’m certainly not like those filthy hipsters!” - so you project those feelings.
Suffice it to say, no one self-identifies as a hipster; the term is always applied to an Other, to separate the authentic Us from the inauthentic, “ironic” Them.

>>342798491
brah you can't just say "nobody does X" and then claim everybody who says they do X is "just a hipster."
1.- how does that constitute any sort of valid argument?
2.- is a hipster not a person, and are there not a fuckton of hipsters?
you need to wake up and realize that even people you don't like are going to buy and play videogames.
This is Hideo Kojima's first game made in 1986.

fucking THAT. you know whats a story that girl gaymers never seem to bring up? there is a country where the woman demanded that men pander to them, and make games for them, and the men said "lol fuck off, do it yourself"
and you know what they did? they did it themselves. now, if you look at that country they have a section of the gaming industry, an ENTIRE genre to themselves, because they fucking nutted up and made their games without anybodys help. if your a man and trying to break into that slice of the pie, gettttt ready to be laffed the fuck out, sorry, woman only!
WHY dont we hear about this incredible story of resilience in the face of adversity, that yes, woman are STRONK?
because its japans boy love visual novel industry. and THATS internal misogyny, and that would look baddddddd
meanwhile, western women have nutted up, teamed together and...asked for mens help. good going western women.

>>342798826
I never said "nobody does X". I said only nostalgia fags and hipsters do it, which is true.
you need to wake up and realize that the world has moved on without you and nobody cares about your grandpa games.
